  D. RSA is a type of encryption.
  B. Public-key encryption was invented in 1976 by Whitfield Diffie and Martin Hellman.
  D. RSA is a type of encryption.

• Question 5:

  How many bits encryption does SHA-1 use?

  A. 64 bits
  B. 128 bits
  C. 160 bits
  D. 256 bits
  C. 160 bits

• Question 6:

  Which of the following best describes session key creation in SSL?

  A. It is created by the server after verifying theuser's identity
  B. It is created by the server upon connection by the client
  C. It is created by the client from the server's public key
  D. It is created by the client after verifying the server's identity
  D. It is created by the client after verifying the server's identity

• Question 7:

  Which of the following is NOT true of cryptography?

  A. Science of protecting information by encoding it into an unreadable format
  B. Method of storing and transmitting data in a form that only those it is intended for can read and process
  C. Most (if not all) algorithms can be broken by both technical and non-technical means
  D. An effective way of protecting sensitive information in storage but not in transit

• Question 8:

  What is SYSKEY # of bits used for encryption?

  A. 40
  B. 64
  C. 128
  D. 256
  C. 128

• Question 9:

  In the context of using PKI, when Sven wishes to send a secret message to Bob, he looks up Bob's public key in a directory, uses it to encrypt the message before sending it off. Bob then uses his private key to decrypt the message and reads it. No one listening on can decrypt the message.

  Anyone can send an encrypted message to Bob but only Bob can read it. Thus, although many people may know Bob's public key and use it to verify Bob's signature, they cannot discover Bob's private key and use it to forge digital signatures.

  What does this principle refer to?

  A. Irreversibility
  B. Non-repudiation
  C. Symmetry
  D. Asymmetry
  D. Asymmetry

• Question 10:

  Steven the hacker realizes that the network administrator of XYZ is using syskey to protect organization resources in the Windows 2000 Server. Syskey independently encrypts the hashes so that physical access to the server, tapes, or ERDs is only first step to cracking the passwords. Steven must break through the encryption used by syskey before he can attempt to brute force dictionary attacks on the hashes. Steven runs a program called "SysCracker" targeting the Windows 2000 Server machine in attempting to crack the hash used by Syskey. He needs to configure the encryption level before he can launch attach.

  How many bits does Syskey use for encryption?

  A. 40 bit
  B. 64 bit
  C. 256 bit
  D. 128 bit
  D. 128 bit
